Wishlist Wednesday #24

Wishlist Wednesday is a book blog hop where we will post about one book
per week that has been on our wishlist for some time, or just added
(it's entirely up to you), that we can't wait to get off the wishlist
and onto our wonderful shelves. This meme is hosted by Pen to Paper.

Book: A Witch's Handbook of Kisses and Curses (Half Moon Hollow #3)

Author: Molly Harper

Release Date: May 28, 2013

Description:

Nola Leary would have been content to stay in Kilcairy, Ireland, healing
villagers at her family’s clinic with a mix of magic and modern
medicine. But a series of ill-timed omens and a deathbed promise to her
grandmother have sent her on a quest to Half-Moon Hollow, Kentucky, to
secure her family’s magical potency for the next generation. Her
supernatural task? To unearth four artifacts hidden by her grandfather
before a rival magical family beats her to it.

Complication
One: Her grandfather was Mr. Wainwright and the artifacts are lost
somewhere in what is now Jane Jameson's book shop. Complication Two: her
new neighbor, Jed Trudeau, who keeps turning up half naked at the
strangest times, a distraction Nola doesn't need. And teaming up with a
real-life Adonis is as dangerous as it sounds, especially when he’s got
the face of an angel and the abs of a washboard—can Nola complete her
mission before falling completely under his spell?

I absolutely love Molly Harper! Her paranormal romances are fresh, funny and sexy. I have yet to read a book of hers that I didn't really enjoy. Even her regular romances are cute and funny. Her How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf series and her Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs series are hilarious and super cute. Molly Harper really has a knack for writing a great story. I can't wait to read the next installment in her Half Moon Hollow series!!!

***Awesome news peeps!!!! I just got approved to get the ARC copy of this book now to read for free instead of waiting to buy it on May 28, 2013!!! Being a blogger totally rocks sometimes!!

Driving Mr. Dead (Half Moon Hollow #1)

Description:

HELL ON WHEELS

After
failing as a magician's assistant, a photographer, and most recently, a
bride, Miranda Puckett takes a position as a driver for Beeline,
Half-Moon Hollow's premiere vampire concierge service.

Miranda's
assignment? Driving Collin Sutherland, the world's most fastidious
vampire from Washington to Kentucky, so he can deliver a mysterious
black case to Council official Ophelia Lambert.

Collin, a
paranoid, aristocratic vampire with a debilitating fear of flying,
refuses to let the case out of his sight. Miranda needs this time on the
road to decide whether to permanently cut her ties with the fiance that
had an "emotional affair" with a childhood pal, but Collin’s neatnik
tendencies are driving her around the bend. The man acts as if leaving a
fast food wrapped on the passenger seat is reason for a full-on CDC
de-contamination scrub-down of the car. All she can do is promise to
stop intentionally doing the things that make his stiff upper lip twitch
with irritation.

As more and more mishaps occur on the road
trip from hell, Miranda and Collin work together to meet his delivery
deadline. Hotel rooms are destroyed. Beloved cars are defiled. And
somewhere along the line, client-driver hostilities become snarky
flirtation.

Will Collin and Miranda make it to the Hollow in one
piece? And if they do, will Miranda leave old, safe relationships
behind for something new and well, just plain weird?

The Care and Feeding of Stray Vampires (Half Moon Hollow #2)

Description:

Iris Scanlon, Half-Moon
Hollow’s only daytime vampire concierge, knows more about the undead
than she’d like. Running all their daylight errands—from letting in the
plumber to picking up some chilled O neg—gives her a look at the
not-so-glamorous side of vampire life. Her rules are strict;
relationships with vamps are strictly business, not friendship—and
certainly not anything else. But then she finds her newest client, Cal,
poisoned on his kitchen floor, and only Iris can help.

Cal - who
would be devastatingly sexy, if Iris allowed herself to think that way -
offers Iris a hefty fee for hiding him at her place until he figures
out who wants him permanently dead. Even though he’s imperious,
unfriendly and doesn't seem to understand the difference between
"employee" and "servant," Iris agrees, and finds herself breaking more
and more of her own rules to help him - particularly those concerning
nudity.

Turns out what her quiet little life needed was some intrigue & romance—in the form of her very own stray vampire.
